Just ordered the LL-04 BMW oil since I am currently in Italy. It says it's for diesel or gas in EU. Below are the BMW part numbers. For $1.50 more a quart I rather get the BMW one than guess with aftermarkets. Still less than half of what Europeans pay. I am also not bothering at all with the 0W-20 LL-14 FE+.
83212365946 - BMW TwinPower Turbo 5W-30
LL-01 (all gas)
83212365949 - BMW TwinPower Turbo 5W-30
LL-04 (all diesel, EU gas only)
83212365954 - BMW TwinPower Turbo 0W-20 FE+ Engine Oil
LL-14 FE+

1) BMW Longlife-04 and BMW Longlife-12 oils are only approved for petrol engines in Europe (EU plus Switzerland, Norway and Liechtenstein). They must not be used outside this area as problems are often encountered with the fuel grade.
